toondids Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Played like champions today. Just unlucky at the end with us being a lady relaxed on the final 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The remaining fixtures are pretty kind, like. 3 of the 4 have nothing to play for. This "nothing to play for" thing is a nonsense, isn't it? People band it about as if it means something, but it's just a throwaway platitude that doesn't take into account the complexities of real life. For all we know, Ipswich will play better with no pressure on them Like we did on the last day against Spurs. People throw it about like the absolutely relevant point it is. So there is a well documented decrease in performance from teams with "nothing to play for"? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

astraguy Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 6 for me games are running out and sadly whenever we fall behind or go in front by just one goal i can always see us fucking it up , The Huddersfield game yesterday was an amazing comeback something we have lacked in closing games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only won a couple in that period as well. They draw a lot of games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 The next two games for Huddersfield will be tricky. I fancy Derby and Fulham to give them a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 6 for me games are running out and sadly whenever we fall behind or go in front by just one goal i can always see us f***ing it up , The Huddersfield game yesterday was an amazing comeback something we have lacked in closing games Your point is valid, if you ignore our not too distant comeback away at Brighton or when we 'saw the game out' in any of the 12 matches we've won by one goal this season.

sempuki Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Brighton slip up and we nip the title Think that's gone now. Second it is in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 With six games left I thought we'd win four, lose one, and draw one. I still think (hope) this. That would give 97 points. If Brighton win two, draw one, and lose one. Title is ours. Promotion will be confirmed before then, despite collective angst and predictable lack of quality in key positions, the performance yesterday was from a team (and crowd) fully up for it. Could be a fantastic final game against Barnsley. Here's hoping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 i've always thought we had the hardest set of fixtures in this run in and we've hit a period of being unable to win games at the wrong time losing gayle and clark when we really needed them, thankfully hayden has come back...rafa needs to flog him for the next 4 games tbh i think we'll draw with ipswich win 2 draw 1 of the last 3 which will obviously be enough in terms of huddersfield slipping up i think it has to come in their next 2 games vs derby and fulham, if they win both of them i think they'll finish the season very strongly and push us all the way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Making up for 4 points over 4 games is a very tall order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Making up for 4 points over 4 games is a very tall order. Accepted. But no fat ladies (Leeds fans ) singing when they simply need to lose one and draw one. Not too different from their good recent form (three losses [30%] and seven wins) and my optimistic runes tell me they are overdue a draw. Think back, we weren't drawing many, but the four draws in our last ten is basically what puts us so far behind. Turn two of them into wins and we would be top on GD. Bottom line is we now need to win all of our games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 It's alreet, surrendering a 10 point cushion after seemingly coasting towards victory just isn't the kind of thing Newcastle do. We'll be fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They took a penalty, missed and someone scored the rebound. Bit confusing though, because the referee didn't give a free kick to Preston. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
